Before using this camera
EMVA 1288
With regard to signal-to-noise ratio in this manual, specifications measured by EMVA 1288 are used
together with specifications by a traditional measurement method.
EMVA 1288 is a more complete measurement that considers multiple noise sources, including random
noise, pattern noise, and shading. Additionally, EMVA 1288 incorporates temporal variances in pixel
output by capturing 100 frames of data and computing the RMS variations over the captured frames.
Because of the comprehensive nature of the noise analysis and the additional consideration for RMS
variances over time, EMVA 1288 SNR measurements are inherently lower than the traditional SNR
measurements given by manufacturers. However, the comprehensive nature combined with rigid test
parameters, means that all manufacturers’ are measuring their products equally and EMVA 1288 tested
parameters can be compared among different manufacturers’ products.
In order to learn more about EMVA 1288, please visit http://www.emva.org
Frame grabber board
The SP-20000M-PMCL and SP-20000C-PMCL comply with “Power over Camera Link” which enables power
to be supplied to the camera through the Camera Link cable(s). Because the power requirements of the
camera exceed the amount of power which can be provided over a single PoCL connection, power must
be supplied via both Camera Link cables in order to utilize the PoCL capabilities. If you plan to use this
function, please be sure that the frame grabber board you are using also complies with this specification.
Alternatively, the camera can be powered via a separate power supply connected to the 12-pin Hirose
connector.
The SP-20000M-PMCL and SP-20000C-PMCL employ output formats which comply with the GenICam
Ⓡ
standard. They are 1X8-1Y (8-Tap output), 1X4–1Y (4-Tap output) and 1X2–1Y (2-Tap output). 1X8–1Y,
1X4-1Y and 1X2–1Y are available for 8-bit and 10-bit. Please check if the frame grabber used in the
system complies with the mentioned formats.
Computer used for SP-20000 series
In order to get proper performance from this camera, it is necessary to use a PC equipped with a PCIe
2.0 slot with a size and capacity of 16 lanes or higher (x16 or x32).
Camera control tool
The SP-20000M-PMCL and SP-20000C-PMCL are designed to use the JAI SDK and Control Tool software to
control camera functions. All controllable functions are stored in the camera’s XML file. The JAI SDK can
be downloaded from www.jai.com .
A camera control tool for using the Short ASCII command protocol is not available on the JAI website.
Please contact your local JAI representative if this is required.

1. General
The SP-20000M-PMCL and SP-20000C-PMCL are among the first new “Spark Series” cameras to be
introduced. They provide both high resolution and a high frame rate with excellent image quality for
machine vision applications. The SP-20000M-PMCL is a monochrome progressive scan CMOS camera and
the SP-20000C-PMCL is the equivalent Bayer mosaic progressive scan CMOS camera. Both are equipped
with CMOS sensors offering a 35 mm full size image format, a resolution of 20 million pixels, and a 4:3
aspect ratio. They provide 30 frames per second for 1X8–1Y output format continuous scanning with 5120
x 3480 full pixel resolution for both monochrome and raw Bayer output.
8-bit or 10-bit output can be selected for both monochrome and raw Bayer formats. The new cameras
feature a Mini Camera Link interface which is capable of supporting a “Power over Camera Link”
capability. A full pixel readout or partial scan readout mode can be selected depending on applications.
The readout format is available from 8-tap, 4-tap or 2-tap output.
The SP-20000M-PMCL and SP-20000C-PMCL have various comprehensive functions needed for automated
optical inspection applications, such as solid state device inspection or material surface inspection. They
incorporate video processing functions such as a look-up table, flat field shading compensation and
blemish compensation in addition to fundamental functions such as trigger, exposure setting and video
level control. They also provide a new HDR (High Dynamic Range) function.

5.4 Pulse Generator
The SP-20000-PMCL series has a frequency divider using the sensor clock as the basic clock and
four pulse generators. In each Pulse Generator, various Clear settings are connected to GPIO.
The following shows Pulse Generator default settings.
Table - 9 Pulse Generator default settings
5.4.1 Clock Pre-scaler
Clock pre-scaler (Divide Value) can set the dividing value of the frequency divider (12-bit
length) and the sensor clock is used for this. Four built-in pulse generators work by the
same clock. In the SP-20000-PMCL, the sensor pixel clock is 39.16 MHz.
5.4.2 Pulse Generator Selector
This is where you select one of the 4 pulse generators in order to set or modify its
parameters.

Note:]
When Pulse Generator Repeat Count is set to “0”, the camera is operating in free-running mode.
However, based on the above default settings, Length=1, Start Point=0 and End Point=1, Pulse Generator stops at High
output. Therefore, if Start Point =0 and End Point=1 are configured, Length should be “2” as the minimum active
width.

Fig.7 Pulse Generator pulse construction
5.4.3 Pulse Generator Length
Set the counter up value (number of clocks, refer to Table 12) for the selected pulse
generator. If Repeat Count value is “0”, and if Pulse Generator Clear signal is not input,
the
pulse generator generates the pulse repeatedly until reaching this counter up value.
5.4.4 Pulse Generator Start Point
Set the active output start count value for the selected pulse generator.
However, please note that a maximum 1 clock jitter for the clock which is divided in the clock
pre-scaler can occur.
5.4.5 Pulse Generator End Point
Set the active output ending count value for the selected pulse generator.
5.4.6 Pulse Generator Repeat Count
Set the repeating number of the pulse for the selected pulse generator. After Trigger Clear
signal is input, the pulse generator starts the count set in Repeat Count. Accordingly, an
active pulse which has a start point and end point can be output repeatedly.
However, if Repeat Count is set to “0”, it works as free-running counter.
5.4.7 Pulse Generator Clear Activation
Set the clear conditions of clear count pulse for the selected pulse generator.
5.4.8 Pulse Generator Clear Sync Mode
Set the count clear method for the selected pulse generator.
In case of Async Mode, if the clear signal is input during the length setting value, the counter
will stop counting according to the clear signal input.
In case of Sync Mode, if the clear signal is input during the length setting value, the counter
will continue to count until the end of the length setting value and then clear the count.
Both modes clear the repeat count when the counter is cleared.

6.3 Output timing
6.3.1 Horizontal timing
This timing is for the continuous trigger. The horizontal frequency is changed by the setting of
Tap Geometry. The SP-20000M-PMCL (monochrome) supports horizontal and vertical binning.
However, the horizontal frequency does not change when horizontal binning is effective, and
therefore, the frame rate is not increased.

Note:
1. In 1X8-1Y, 10-bit setting (80-bit Configuration), DVAL output port is used for data output and therefore, DVAL is not output through
Camera Link interface.
2. In the SP-20000-PMCL, the horizontal frequency is not doubled even if horizontal binning is ON.
3. In the SP-20000-PMCL, the horizontal frequency is 1/2 if vertical binning is ON. And if vertical binning is ON, the invalid data is output
in non-active range (H-offset range) of DVAL during LVAL being active.
4. H-Offset： Duration between LVAL Active Start and DVAL Active Start.
5. The phase of Exposure Active is described based on using the output at Camera Link Spare bit as the reference.
6. If the next exposure is done while the image of V-Binnig On is read out, the exposure control is increased or decreased by 0.5 line unit.
7. “d” ExposureActive Start to LVALActiveStart may have 1 clock difference due to the jitter in LVALNonActive period.

“Actual operation” shows the real operating values that can be expected. However, in order to calculate the frame rate and so on, the
value of 1 Line Total Clock in the calculation is used. This is because jitter occurs in the LVAL Non Active period.

6.3.2 Vertical timing
In Continuous Trigger operation, the output through the Camera Link interface is as follows.
However, if 80-bit (1X8-1Y, 10-bits) configuration is set, DVAL and Exposure Active
(JAI CUSTOM) are not output through Camera Link “Spare” bit because this port is used
for data output.
The SP-20000-PMCL can support H-Binning and V-Binning functions, but the frame rate is
not increased.

Note:
1. As the frame rate of the SP-20000-PMCL is 1 µs duration per 1 step, the above FVAL Non-Active conversion may have certain
tolerance.
2. In the SP-20000-PMCL, the horizontal frequency is not doubled even if horizontal binning is used. The frame rate is not increased.
3. In the SP-20000-PMCL, the horizontal frequency is 1/2 if vertical binning is used. Therefore, if the height is 1/2, the vertical frequency
is not doubled.
4. In the SP-20000-PMCL, the frame rate can be changed by 1 µs unit. In the above table, “B” FVAL Non-Active duration is
varied.

6.3.3 ROI (Region Of Interest)
In the SP-20000-PMCL, a subset of the image can be output by setting Width, Height, Offset-X,
and Offset-Y. If the height is decreased, the number of lines read out is decreased and as the
result, the frame rate is increased. However, in the horizontal directon, the horizontal
frequency is not changed if the width is decreased. In the SP-20000-PMCL, the minimum width
is “8” and minimum height is “2”.

6.3.5 Multi ROI function
This function divides one frame image into a maximum of 8 images vertically and reads out all
areas in one frame. In this function, width is the same for all 8 images. The multi ROI function
is enabled if [Video Sending Mode] is set to “Multi ROI”.
Table - 21 Multi ROI Index table default values
6.3.5.1 Multi ROI setting parameters
(1) Multi ROI Index Max：Setting value 1 ～ 8
Maximum 8 ROI settings are possible in a frame. Set Index 1 through 8 in Multi ROI Index
table as an application requires.
(2) Multi ROI Width
The setting range and Step number are the same as the normal ROI setting in which
[Width] plus [Offset X] should be equal to [Width Max]. In Multi ROI operation, the
maximum offset value in index 1 to index 8 is the object in this calculation.
(3) Multi ROI Index Selector：
Index 1 to 8 can be selected. [Height], [Offset X], and [Offset Y] of the selected Multi ROI
Index are displayed and can be set.
(4) Multi ROI Offset X：
Offset X can be set for each ROI area of Multi ROI Index 1 to 8.
The restriction for setting Step and other factors are the same as the normal ROI setting.
As described before, in Multi ROI operation, Multi ROI Width is a common width setting for
Multi ROI Index 1 to 8.
(5) Multi ROI Height：
Height can be set for each ROI area of Multi ROI Index 1 to 8.
The restriction for setting Step and other factors are the same as the normal ROI setting.
(6) Multi ROI Offset Y：
Offset Y can be set for each ROI area of Multi ROI Index 1 to 8.
The restriction for setting Step and other factors is the same as the normal ROI setting.
The summary of Muliti ROI Height value of index 1 to 8 should be less than Height Max.

7. Operating modes
7.1. Acquisition control (change the frame rate)
7.1.1 Acquisition control
With Trigger OFF (free-running mode), it is possible to specify a free-running frame rate (i.e.,
no trigger needed) that is slower than the default rate.
Modification of the frame rate is done by entering a value in the AcquisitionFrameRate control
corresponding to the number of microseconds to be allocated to each frame period. Allowed
values range from 1697Hz to 0.125Hz depending on the ROI and the tap geometry specified.
However if the value entered is less than the time required for the default frame rate, the
setting is ignored and the default frame rate is used. For example, in 1X2 if the value entered
is less than the time required at 80MHz Camera Link pixel clock, the minimum frame period for
the smallest possible ROI (2 lines) requires 424Hz, so any entry less than 424Hz will always be
ignored in this configuration.
The setting range in Acquisition Frame Rate is:
Shortest
to
Longest
Inverse number of time
required to drive all pixels in
the area set by ROI command
or
inverse number of time
required to transmit one
frame data
to
0.125 Hz = 8 seconds
For additional details, refer to table 23.
Note: In the table 23, it is possible to set, for instance 7.8136 fps for 1X2–1Y, full frame and
80 MHzMHz of Camera Link pixel clock, but 7.8136 fps is the setting limit value. This value will
vary depending on shutter settings which will cause 1 H delay in conditions. 7.5 fps is the
performance guaranteed value.
How to set:
ROI should be set first.
The available number shown in Acquisition Frame Rate will correspond to the maximum frame
period for the specified ROI.
The value can be decreased up to 0.125Hz (fps).
If ROI is changed from a smaller size to a larger size, the default frame rate of the ROI is
automatically recalculated inside the camera and changed to the slower frame rate of the larger
ROI.
ROI setting:
Height: 2 lines to 3840 lines for SP-20000M-PMCL
2 lines to 3840 lines for SP-20000C-PMCL
As for the details of ROI settings, refer to section 6.3.3.

Note:]
1. The above reference value is the setting range to which frame interval is automatically changed if Height
is set at Height Max. In vertical ROI operation, if Height is set at less than Height Max, the minimum
setting value will be smaller. Use Table 17 to calculate the minimum Frame Rate interval in vertical ROI
operation.
2. In the SP-20000-PMCL, the frame rate in 1X8-1Y and Full Line setting can be set at a maximum of 31.250
fps. However, it is only guaranteed up to 30 fps in terms of performance.
3. In the SP-20000M-PMCL and SP-20000C-PMCL, the frame rate has maximum 1 line longer or shorter
depending on the exposure time. This happens, when the exposure executes for the next frame while
the previous video is reading out, the increment or of 1 μs for the exposure time is completed at the
exposure completion side. Refer to 7.2.3.

7.2. Exposure control
7.2.1 Exposure Mode
Exposure mode sets which exposure mode is to be used.
If the trigger is used, Frame Start must also be used.
When Exposure mode is set to Timed or Trigger Width, the combination of Exposure Mode
and Frame Start can set various operations.
The following table shows the operation depending on the combination.

in Frame Trigger as the trigger.
Trigger mode OFF: If Acquisition Active is active, the camera operates in free-running mode.
Exposure mode can be selected from the following.
OFF: No shutter control
Timed: The exposure will be done in the preset period. The setting can be done in
μsec units.
Frame Start OFF: Free-running mode and exposure control is available.
Frame Start ON: EPS operation mode
In this status, if JAI_PIV is selected as the Trigger option, the camera will
operate in PIV mode.
Trigger width: The exposure will be controlled by the width of the trigger pulse.
Frame Start OFF: Not active. No exposure control
Frame Start ON: PWC operation mode

7.2.2 ExposureTime
This command is effective only when Exposure Mode is set to Timed. It is for setting exposure
time. The setting step for exposure time is 1 μsec per step.
Minimum: 10 μsec (Note: The real exposure rtime is 304µs)
Maximum: 8 seconds （When Frame Start Trigger Mode is ON）
Note: The real exposure time is shown in the following table due to the sensor characteristics.
But the exposure active signal is same as the exposure time.

7.2.3 Behavior if Trigger Overlap is set to Readout
In the SP-20000-PMCL, if the accumulation of the next frame starts while the current
image is read out, the varied value of accumulation time is changed to 1 Line period inside the
camera. This is done so that the accumulation start signal will not affect the output
signal while it is overlapped.
Table - 25 Modes where the exposure control becomes 1L if overlap occurs
As an example, the following is for Continuous Trigger.

Note:
In Continuous Trigger operation with Frame Start Trigger Mode OFF, the maximum Exposure Time
is limited by the frame rate setting. In 1X8–1Y camera output format and 80 MHz Camera Link
pixel clock, the maximum setting value is 7.999742 sec which is 258 µs smaller than 8 seconds,
the maximum value of frame rate setting.
In EPS Trigger operation (Frame Start Trigger Mode set to On), the maximum exposure time is not
influenced and therefore it is 8 seconds as the maximum.
Due to the characteristics of the camera’s sensor, the black level may rise if a long time
exposure is used, or if the sensor temperature increases. Although this black level variance
is compensated in the camera, the performance needed to maintain the dynamic range for a
maximum exposure of 8 seconds is guaranteed only under the following conditions.
SP-20000M-PMCL : The ambient temperature is up to 25℃.
SP-20000C-PMCL : The ambient temperature is up to 15℃.

“Non-Active”
In continuous trigger, if the
exposure time is increased by 1
µs, the exposure completion is
delayed by 1 µs. This delay with
1 µs step is reset if the delay
exceeds 1 li ne. This exposure
time increase of 1 li ne is
adjusted so that the exposure
start timing is 1 line ealier.
“Non-Active”
Maximum 1 line is delayed.
As the p eriod between the
exposure completion and the
next FVAL active is a fixed
value, the frame rate has a
delay of this amount.

Note:
1. If V-Binning is set to On, the horizontal frequency is 1/2. However, as the effective image period is not changed, the
exposure time setting step is approx. 8 steps for 1X8 –1Y and approx. 16 steps for 1X4 –1Y.
2. The default setting for Camera Link Pixel Clock is 80 MHz.
3. The exposure start position calculate numbers of line which Exposure Active Start Edge passes , if the upper part of
the previous video is 1 line. However, it the frame rate is overlapped with Exposure Start, maximum 1 line delay is
occurred and differences may be happened.
4. The result of calculation and actual camera operation may differ by 1 to 2 µs.
5. Exposure Time Effective Step value when overlapped is basic figure. It may be increased or decreased due to
ROUND figures..
6. In overlapped operation, shutter noise occuring at the start of the exposure period will appear in the video (Approx.
70LSB/10bit/24dB as the maximum)

Starting position of Frame Trigger Active at EPS Trigger

The starting position will vary until [Exposure Time] value
exceeds ([FVAL]+[Exposure Active End Edge ~ FVAL Active
Start Edge]-158).
[FVAL]+[Exposure Active End Edge ~ FVAL Active Start Edge]
is a constant value. If [Exposure Time] is smaller than this
constant value, the overlap period is shorter and if [Exposure
Time] is larger than this constant value, the overlap period is
longer.

7.7 PIV (Particle Image Velocimetry)
The Particle Image Velocimetry mode can be used in applications where 2 images need to be
taken with a very short time interval. It can only be used with strobe flash as illumination. The
first accumulation time is 10 sec to 2 sec. Then, the second exposure will be taken. The first
strobe is activated during the first exposure duration and the second strobe is pulsed while the
first frame is being read out. In this way, two strobe flashes generate two video outputs.

Note 1. Overlap mode=Readout is not available
Note 2. The minimum interval calculation assumes that the exposure time for all sequences are
equal. If there are differences, it is necessary to add the diference to the calculation.
If
the exposure times are different, it is recommended to organize the exposure times
from the shortest exposure to the longest one.
Note 3. The sequence must start with Index 0. After Index 0 is executed, the sequence
proceeds to the next setting index.
In this mode, while the previous trigger operation (Index table) is activating, the next trigger
cannot be overlapped. Sequence index table must be through index 0 and after index 0 is
performed, the next index can be operated.

8. Other functions
8.1 Black level control
This function adjusts the setup level.
Variable range: -64 to 63 LSB (at 10-bit output)
8.1.1 Black Level Selector
The following items can be adjusted.
Monochrome: Black Level All
Color: Black Level All/ Black Level Red/ Black Level Blue
8.1.2 Black Level
The black level can be adjusted in the following range.
Monochrome: Black Level All: -256 ～+255
Color: Black Level All: -256 ～+255
Black Level Red: -512 ～+511
Black Level Red: -512 ～+511
8.1.3 Auto black control
The auto black control function is used to automatically adjust the black level of the sensor,
which may vary due to temperature changes and/or the exposure time.
It can adjust up to 30% of the video output level.
It has three modes which have different compensation values and the user can choose an
appropriate mode depending on the application.
As the dynamic range of the sensor depends on the compensation value of the black level, for
best results it is recommended that the camera be used under low temperature conditions, i.e.,
less than 30°C and with exposure times of less 1 frame, in order to maintain an appropriate
dynamic range.
Auto: The compensation value can be automatically varied up to 30%. In this mode, the
dynamic range is the smallest.
Limit: In this mode, the limit of the black level compensation value can be set in the
range of 0% to 30% by 1% steps. If the camera is used in an environment with little
temperature change or short exposure time, this mode can automatically provide an
appropriate balance between black level compensation and dynamic range by setting
the upper limit of the black level compensation.
Fix: In this mode, the camera automatically saves the temperature
and the status of the exposure time just before this mode is set. Then, it sets
the appropriate black level compensation value and the maximum
dynamic range in accordance with the saved conditions. After this automatic
adjustment, the compensation value, which is indicated by percentage, can be read
out.
In this mode, the black level compensation value is fixed. It is recommended to use
this mode if the temperature and exposure time are stable. If the black level
varies due to temperature change and/or exposure time variation, it is necessary
to set this mode again in order to learn the new environmental conditions. If the
environmental conditions are expected to be varied, it is recommended to use Auto
or
Limit mode.

8.2 Gain control
The SP-20000M-PMCL can adjust the gain level from x1 (0dB) to 16 times (+24dB) using x1 (0dB)
as the reference (Factory default). In the SP-20000C-PMCL, the master gain can be adjusted from
x1 (0dB) to 16 times (+24dB) and R and B gains can be adjusted in the range of 0.45 times (-7dB)
to 7.15 times (+10dB) using the master gain as the reference.
Resolution:
Master Gain: x0.01 (0.035dB)/Step
Blue/Red Gain: x0.00017 /Step
The master gain uses digital gain. All digital gain has the resolution of x0.01 /Step and provides
more precise gain setting. However, as it uses only digital gain, please note that if high gain is
set, breaks in the histogram may occur.

8.2.4 Balance White Auto
This is a function to enable the auto white balance by using R and B gain controls.
It contains the following methods.
OFF： Set the white balance manually
Once： Control the auto white balance only one time when it is set
Continuous： Continuing control of the auto white balance
AWB Channel area: Can set the area to control the auto white balance.
The detection area is the same as the figure 36.
8.3. LUT
This function can be used to convert the input to the desired output characteristics.
The Look-Up Table (LUT) has 256 points for setup. The output level can be created by
multiplying the gain data by the input level.
8.3.1 LUT Mode
Can be selected from OFF, Gamma or LUT Table.
8.3.2 LUT Index
This represents the “starting” or “input” pixel value to be modified by the Lookup Table. The
SP-20000-PMCL has a 256-point Lookup Table, meaning the index points are treated like an 8bit
image with 0 representing a full black pixel and 255 representing a full white pixel. The index
points are automatically scaled to fit the internal pixel format of the camera. This is common
for all output configuration.
8.3.3 LUT Value
This is the “adjusted” or “output” pixel value for a given LUT index. It has a range of 0 to 4095
(12-bit) and is automatically scaled to the bit depth of the current operating mode (8-bit or 10bit).
Note: linear interpolation is used if needed to calculate LUT values between index points. In
the color mode, the LUT function works the same regardless of the color of the pixel.

This command is used to set gamma between gamma 0.45 and gamma 1.0 (OFF).
8 steps are provided. The gamma value is an approximate value.
Fig.35 Gamma correction
8.5 Shading Correction
This function compensates for shading (non-uniformity) caused by the lens or the light source
used. This compensation can be performed even if shading issues are not symmetrical in
horizontal and/or vertical directions.
There are two methods of correction.
Flat shading correction:
The method to compensate the shading is to measure the highest luminance level in the image
and use that data as the reference. Luminance levels of other areas are then adjusted so that
the level of the entire area is equal. The block for compensation is 20 blocks (H) x 15 blocks (V)
and each block contains 256 x 256 pixels. The complementary process is applied to produce the
compensation data with less error.
If there is no data, use
adjacent data on both sides
Average data is used for
compensation
SP-20000M-PMCL / SP-20000C-PMCL

Fig.38 Concept drawing of Flat shadingcorrection
Color shading correction (For SP-20000C-PMCL only):
In this case, R channel and B channel are adjusted to match with G channel characteristics. The
block for compensation is 20 blocks (H) x 15 blocks (V) and each block contains 256 x 256 pixels.
The complementary process is applied to produce the compensation data with less error.
Before adjustment After adjustment
Fig. 39 Concept drawing of color shading correction
Note: Under the following conditions, the shading correction circuit may not work properly.
If there is some area in the image with a video level less than 70%
If part of the image or the entire image is saturated
If the highest video level in the image is less than 300LSB (at 10-bit output)
8.6 Blemish compensation
The SP-20000-PMCL has a blemish compensation circuit. This function compensates blemishes on
the CMOS sensor (typically pixels with extremely high response or extremely low response). This
applies to both monochrome and color versions. Pixels that fulfill the blemish criteria can be
compensated by averaging the data from pixels in both adjacent columns and, in the case of the
SP-20000C-PMCL, the defective pixels can be compensated by averaging the data from the same
Bayer color pixels in adjacent columns. The number of pixels that can be compensated is up to
1000 pixels.

8.7 ALC
In the SP-20000M-PMCL and SP-20000C-PMCL, auto gain and auto exposure can be combined to
provide a wide ranging automatic exposure control from dark to bright or vice versa.
The functions are applied in the sequence shown below and if one function is disabled, the
remaining function will work independently.
If the lighting condition is changed from bright to dark ASC ― AGC
If the lighting condition is changed from dark to bright AGC ― ASC
Fig.42 ALC function
ALC Reference will determine the target video level for AGC and Auto Expsoure. For instance,
if ALC Reference is set to 100% video level, AGC and/or Auto Exposure will function to maintain
100% video level.

8.8 HDR function (SP-20000M-PMCL only)
The SP-20000M-PMCL has a High Dynamic Range function which utilizes built-in sensor
characteristics. If [Exposure Mode] is set to“Timed”and then [HDR Mode] is set to “On”, the
High Dynamic Range function is activated. In this mode, it is possible to determine the input
level of knee point(s) by using the exposure time as the reference. 1 or 2 knee points can be
defined.

9. Camera Settings
9.1 Camera Control Tool
In the SP-20000-PMCL, control of all camera functions is done by the JAI SDK and Control Tool
software. All controllable camera functions are stored in an XML file inside of the camera. The
JAI SDK and Control Tool software can be downloaded from www.jai.com.
If you need to use the Short ASCII communication protocol and associated control tool, please
contact your local JAI representative.
Specific notes regarding Control Tool use:
1. For SP-20000-PMCL, the JAI SDK and Control Tool 2.0 can be used to control the camera,
provided the PC on which the JAI software is installed is connected to the camera via a GenCPcompliant Camera Link frame grabber. Many frame grabber vendors also provide their own
GenICam control tool software, as do a number of third-party software companies. Software
conflicts can occur between these GenICam tools and the JAI SDK and Control Tool causing one
or both tools to function improperly. Therefore, if you intend to use the JAI SDK and Control Tool
you should A) not install any other GenICam software on your host PC, or B) install the JAI SDK
and Control Tool last, after installing any other software. This will, in most cases, ensure that
the JAI SDK and Control Tool functions properly. If not, please contact the frame grabber
manufacturer or JAI to determine other ways to eliminate any software conflict.
2. The frame grabber used must be compliant with Camera Link Specification v1.1 or greater
in order to communicate with the JAI SDK and Control Tool. If it is not, the JAI SDK and Control
Tool cannot be used, and the Short ASCII communication protocol and associated control tool
should be used instead.
9.2 Camera Default Settings

2 Protocol（Short ASCII Command）
2.1 Transmit the setting command to camera
NN is any kind of command.
NN=[Param.]<CR><LF>
e.g.
Send to camera: GA=0 <CR><LF>
Camera response: COMPLETE<CR><LF>
When camera receives a valid command, camera will return 'COMPLETE'.
If camera receives an improper command, camera will return one of the following:
e.g.
Send to camera: GAX=0 <CR><LF>
Camera response: 01 Unknown Command!!<CR><LF>
e.g.
Send to camera: GA=1000 <CR><LF>
Camera response: 02 Bad Parameters!!<CR><LF>
2.2 Transmit the request command to camera
The status of camera's settings can be queried by transmitting NN?<CR><LF>, where NN is any valid
command.
The camera will return the current setting data.
e.g.
Send to camera: GA? <CR><LF>
Camera response: GA=0<CR><LF>
2.3 Switching baud rate between PC and camera
Camera always starts up with 9600 bps. This can be switched to higher baud rates after
communication has been established. When switching to other baud rates the procedure is as
follows.
e.g. Change baud rate to 115200 bps
1. Confirm baud rates camera supported
Send to camera: SBDRT? <CR><LF>
Camera response: SBDRT=31(0x1F)<CR><LF>
SP-20000M-PMCL / SP-20000C-PMCL
- 89 -
2. Request new baud rate
Send to camera: CBDRT=16(0x10) <CR><LF>
Camera response: COMPLETE<CR><LF>
(Change baud rate to 115200 bps)
3. Rewrite new baud rate again with new baud rate (Confirmation command)
Send to camera: CBDRT=16(0x10) <CR><LF>
Camera response: COMPLETE<CR><LF>
In case the camera does not receive the confirming command with new baud rate within
250 ms after sending the acknowledgement it falls back to the original baud rate (9600 bps).
